Roll Top Cabinet

I saw the "Dentist's Desk" shown on the right at a friend's house and was intrigued with the unusual roll top. We didn't have room for another desk, but I used the piece as an inspiration for the roll top cabinet pictured on the right. Made of quarter sawn white oak, fumed with ammonia and finished with a coat of garnet shellac followed by an oil and urethane hand-rubbed finish. It is almost complete, but still needs the hardware.

Hey, thanks Justin and James. This was my first attempt at making a roll top because I wasn't sure I could make it work. It turned out okay, and I was pleasantly surprised at how well it slides in the track. Most importantly, my wife really likes the piece. LOL

Product Reviews

I have built many kitchens and finally decided to buy the Foreman, because my latest kitchen consisted of 28 cabinets and I was over my hand hurting from all the drilling, moving the clamp etc., it seemed like a smart choice.
